Georgia News and Political Notes From Macon to Boston
A broad 1857 column covers Georgia state funding for a new library and economic debates, and reports on Georgia politics, copper and mugwump dynamics, plans for a Southwest Georgia fair, and school attendance comparisons. It notes a Venezuela style cross-border dispute, a Cutting case in El Paso, and a governor’s critique of Sheriff Westcott over Moore lynching fallout. It also recalls the Pennsylvania Volunteers sword loss and promotes Ayers Sarsaparilla as a blood purifier.
